Biography | Tim Cook — His Milan Store Opened Through a Fountain on Piazza Liberty
kevin
On 26 July 2018 Apple opened a store under Piazza del Liberty in Milan.
Doors opened at 5 p.m.
Visitors walked through a glass fountain into rooms below the square.
Foster + Partners and Jony Ive designed the piazza in Beola Grigia, with fourteen trees and an amphitheatre that stays open all night.
Angela Ahrendts, then head of retail, greeted people who had waited overnight.
Cook was chief executive. He is not in the company's opening pictures.
Italy's first Apple Store had opened eleven years earlier in the Roma Est mall. This was the first of the new generation in Italy, a few steps off Corso Vittorio Emanuele.
Two hundred and thirty staff.
A visitor still crosses the wet glass and goes down.
